[He nods in agreement. The events on the bridge are an obvious concern, considering the circumstances, and Spock knows better than to forget it entirely in favor of mindless cooperation. The takeover does not sit well with him either, but he has a better sense of control when it comes to his concerns than his friends. It worries him that Jim is so afflicted, especially given Jim’s gut feelings and seemingly senseless intuition that has proven itself to Spock several times now.

Of course, there is also the matter of the Enterprise, and though he knows he cannot confirm the exact state of things, Spock has faith.]

Regardless of interruption, I believe the Enterprise is in good hands. [A light reassurance for Jim, if he should take it.] As for the present matter, I do believe that we must tread carefully. Even as disagreeable as the matter is, questioning their authority will likely only instigate conflict on our parts.

[Not that he feels Jim does not already know this. While before, he may have doubted, Spock knows that Jim isn’t unaware.]

Perhaps if we could acquire more information, regarding this universe, this time, and this ship. [He suggests it knowing how obvious it likely already is, but it’s his own way of hinting to Jim what his personal intent is, Spock not always being keen on the most direct wording when it comes to his personal thoughts and plans.]
